Memories with Mom and Mom Mom's

Last night I had the most wonderful experience with my 6 year old granddaughter baking cookies. She was so excited since they were "Guy's" (her name for her granddad) favorite cookies and I was quite surprised at her ability with the mixer. We talked about how to add the ingredients and how long to bake the dough. This was so special to me since my children showed no interest at all in these activities when they were young (one did become a computer guy and the other is a paralegal and the info/education has been valuable). I never had these moments with my grandmothers since they were so far away and it feels as if I had a once in a lifetime trip or experience that is beyond belief.
What kinds of moments have you had/have with your children/grandchildren in the kitchen that sustain you still during the holidays?
